P3Qwling around houses at night and peeping in w'ndowt while the occupants are preparing for bed. In a few Instances the prowler or prowlers have bqen seen and chased away but at these times identification has been impossible At plhex times tracks under wlndowt and jarious signs have betrayer1 th eli presence. Last Wednesday night there wat a lady left alone In the house. Upor go'ng to the screen door to hook It she wqs accosted by a man who ask ed ff he might come In. The womai ran Into the house and locked all t h e , doors and the prowler was frighten ed givey- It was some time before tha lady recovered from her fright As in other Instances she was unabk to give a descrlpton of the man ex cept he was tall and slim and won a black suit and a soft hat. Tht man knew the woman was alone and took advantage of the oppor tuntty offered. There Is only on, cure for moral degenerates of thle hind and that is to vaccinate him w'th, a good load of buckshot.

ZEROLENE helps win the PA C K A R D CON TEST In 1922 the City Motor Trucking Corn. pany of Portland, Oregon, won the P ack ard's low upkeep contest in the State of Oregon with its 4-ton Packard No. 180- 590. D uring the p erio d o f this con test Zerolene oil w as u sed exclusively, and the Company writes us as follows: I n consequence of our success in thia contest, and be cause of our uniform satisfaction w ith the u se of Zero lene in all other equipment, we naturally consider Zerolene as an absolutely dependable and correct lu bricant. W e most cheerfully recommend it to any and all truck operators to receive real efficiency in * lubricating oils.” ‘ It is records like these that montii af ter month and year after year are cutting the ground from under the superstition * that there is something mysteriously “better" about eastern oils, just because they cost more. Zerolene sales have increased seven fold in seven years. The more experi enced the motorist, the more . likely he is to discover that the Zerolene-lubricated car deliv ers better gasoline mileage, accumulates less carbon, costs less for upkeep, and has a longer working life. —the Standard Oil C o m p a n y ’« new im proved o il lor W h y pay tribute to a su Perd u n “ Feed* perstition?

For ten years farmers have been leav ng the land and production has decreased by the los» of 4,000,000 farmers. Now the building boom in cltleB Is off. F a c tories cannot keep going full handed because the buying capacity of 40,- 000,000 farm people of the nation has been reduced half. Even auto mobiles are slumping. Fat Jobs are gone and the lig h wages of the fac. tory, m ill and railroad are going down. Men and their fam ilies must return to agricultural communities and sm all tracts where a living can be more readily secured. The cow, the pig. the hen. the garden, the sheep, tho berry patch, the honey . bee, home grown vegetables, fruits and meata. cheaper rents and easier living 1« calling. Big Advertising Being Done Northwest railroads and commer cial bodies of our big cities have an ticipated th e movement and have been carrying on a big advertising campaign througout the whole nation for settlers and investors to come to the northwest. The Oregon state chamber has located ono colony. The W ashington state chamber an other, of American Legion boys, at W hite Bluffs, 60 of them, and want. 60 more. The Portland chamber has inveet'gnted the conditions of the big eastern clt le» and found peo ple ready to come to the farm, enough to Justify a campaign. Quiet, ly and mainly unobserved the tide has been turning for weeks and act. ually elem ents have been transform, lng deeply for months leading to the great farmward flood. The email tract will be the goal. The dry sea son emphasizes the Irrigated tract with all season water and right here Is one of the great spots where the tide of settlem ent w ill reach ito highest point. W hy Um atilla Project? Many reason* so advantageous over other plaree. Abundance of storage water which Is guarantee of full crops 'a dry sea son». The Cold Springs reservoir holds sufficient water for all lands E. P. DODD under cultivation and the McKay re servoir soon to be completed w ill furnish abundance for all new lands and in addition w ill be a heavy re turn flow nnd drainage that will give all lands of the Greater Uma tilla project super abundance. Diversified farm ing along defin ite ln e s is In progress here. The' dairy cow Is a well established in dustry, with a high grade lin e of Jersey cows and gold medal strain of sires. An excellent creamery and good market« take care of all products and a weekly cash basis. Poultry thrives no where better and a poultry assoclat’on Is being organ. Ired. Hogs have alw ays been suc cessful here. ^Asparagus, berries and potato i are being advanced rapidly and marketing organizations pro vided to sell the product at, best prices. Fruits and vegetables are grown for all local needs. The honey center of Oregon is here and th is at pronounced tlge sw eetest place In Oregon where 400.000 pounds of fine alfalfa honey is produced. IDorn thrives well and has been known to produce 100 bushelg per acre on de veloped lands. A lfalfa Is the basic product, both as a soil fertilizer and as forage for our livestock. The headquarters of the Oregon Hay Growers assoclat’on Is here and the association handles 80 per cent of the product, thus standardizing the hay and stabilizing the market. Diversification of products along practical 1'nee adapted to soils and conditions and organized marketing Insuring staudarlzatlon of products and stability of pr cee are »entrances of fair profits and squad Invest ments. Climate, railroad transportation, almost hourly singes on the Cohita- bla Highway through the project 30 miles, good towns, excellent grade and high school« with school hues«« to country d'atrletn rural m all routes, good* eountry road«, good towns, church««, libraries, banka aad store», all add to the medera life thia Irrigated aaetloa. Great future developments are as sured. The government ha» made extensive Investigation» of the U m «. tills Rapids power a'te adjoining tha Project «nd a report w ill be mpde to the next Coagree». Much public force Is behind thl« great power and Irrigation project and 11« ultim ate construction ’a only a matter of a few year». The building of the Mc Kay Creek reservoir and the conse quent distribution of water to 50.- 000 acreH more of adjoining lands w ill supply homes for litany people and labor on construction works, which will create much act vUy for many years to come. W ith the return to lands, and the big development of the Northw st, the Umatilla Project, w ith all its distinct advantages, w ill he one of the centers of attraction. When analysed in deta il and summarised as a whole, no locality in the Gi*at Northwest can bo compared w ith it. in Opportunity for the average man. her o f large ueen.
